Chapter 485: Dangerous Trial
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After leaving Hua Xuanyin’s cave abode, Chen An returned home.
Recalling the Newcomer Trial that Hua Xuanyin had just introduced to him, his face was filled with worry.
He had joined the Hundred Spirit Holy Land only because he wanted to live a peaceful life and not be in the limelight.
Unfortunately, most of the time, many things had to be done involuntarily.
“It’s about sparring?”
“The most important thing is to show the elegance of the disciples?”
“Whoever believes you is stupid.”
Chen An sat down at the tea table in the hall and muttered to himself unhappily.
He did not believe a single word that Hua Xuanyin had said to him earlier.
Gu Xinyue, who had just come out of the kitchen, heard his muttering and couldn’t help but walk over with concern.
“Husband, is there something troubling you?”
“Hall Master threatened me to participate in the Newcomer Trial. This is really annoying. I’ve only joined the Hundred Spirit Holy Land for less than a month, but 1 have to do this and that. 1 can’t refuse. When my strength increases one day, 1’11 be the first to kill this bitch!”
Chen An did not hide this matter in his heart and told Gu Xinyue everything in detail. There were many dissatisfied complaints in between.
“Husband, there’s no need to be upset. It’s fine as long as you don’t do anything during the trial.”
Gu Xinyue gave such a suggestion.
Chen An carried her into his arms and sat on his lap. He rubbed her snow-white hair and said,
“That won’t do. 1 still have to please her at this stage. After all, she’s the Hall Master. Offending her will only make our lives difficult.”
“In that case, husband, quickly increase your strength. At that time, take her in as a concubine and bully her every day. Then, everything will be resolved.” Gu Xinyue suggested calmly.
Chen An couldn’t help but laugh when he heard that. He teased, “Yue’er has been spending too much time with Ying’er and has been led astray by her. She wants me to take in a good-looking woman as a concubine.”
Gu Xinyue only smiled and did not deny it.
She knew that her current thoughts had indeed been greatly influenced by Song Huaying.
Especially when they were loving in bed. In the past, she was very conservative, but now, she had been led astray by Song Huaying and played very well.
“Husband, let me serve you here while there’s no one in the hall.”
Gu Xinyue raised her pretty face slightly and looked at Chen An. Although her tone was as cold as ever, her words were filled with charm, making Chen An’s blood boil.
Time flew by.
Five days later.
The day the trial began.
On this day, Chen An set off early to his destination and arrived in front of a huge teleportation array.
When he arrived, there were already many contestants gathered at the venue.
These contestants were all new disciples from the various halls of the Holy Land.
Those who had joined the Holy Land for less than a hundred years were all new disciples.
On a high platform beside the teleportation array, it was filled with the upper echelons of the Holy Land. They were all Hall Masters from various halls and some elders who were in charge of other matters.
As for the Holy Lords or the ancestors of the Holy Lands, he did not see any of them.
It was not that he was not present, but that he was in the pavilion.
Seeing this scene, Chen An was also a little surprised.
Was this Newcomer Trial so important?
With that in mind, he used his divine power, Golden Fire Eyes, to spy on the cultivation information of the surrounding cultivators.
He did not dare to spy on the upper echelons of the Holy Land.
Because he knew that spying on these experts would definitely be discovered.
However, he did not have to worry about spying on cultivators of the same realm.
[Cloud Lord: True Immortal Realm Level 8]
[You Yuqing: True Immortal Level 6]
[Yu Jinliang: True Immortal Level 7]
[Wu Taoshuang: Partial-Immortal Level 9]
[Gao Tianhai: True Immortal Level 4]
[…]
In just a moment, Chen An had seen all the cultivation information of the dozens of participants present.
They were basically all True Immortals, and only a few were
Partial – Immortals.
Just understanding his cultivation was not enough.
Soon, Chen An used the divine power “Simulation Trial” to create an absolute domain in his mind. He copied all the contestants and fought them fiercely.
He did a few simulations.
If it was one against many, it would not work. It would not be able to withstand the damage of a group attack.
However, if he defeated them one by one, it would be easy.
Whether it was an eighth level True Immortal or a ninth level True Immortal, they couldn’t withstand three moves from him.
A weak seventh level True Immortal couldn’t even withstand a single move from him.
“The result of this trial is assured…”
Chen An could not help but smile.
Although he did not want to participate in this trial, since he had already participated, it would be a waste not to take the rewards.
More than two hours later.
A white-robed old man appeared out of thin air above the candidates. He stood in the air with his hands behind his back and announced.
“This year’s Newcomer Trial will begin in an hour. Next, I’ll introduce the rules of the trial to you.”
“First, when the trial begins, all of you will be randomly teleported to the foot of a mountain forest. What you have to do is to reach the top of the mountain and obtain the flag. The person who obtains the flag will be the top scholar. The rest of you will be ranked according to the distance from the flag.”
“Secondly, I’ll give each of you an Immortal Realm Teleportation Talisman later. This Teleportation Talisman has the effect of protecting the holder. When you suffer fatal damage, it will block the damage for you and teleport you out of the trial ground. Once you’re teleported out, it will be considered a failure.”
“Thirdly, the forest that is the trial ground is a forbidden area. It has a natural spirit sealing effect. Cultivators below the Quasi-Immortal King Realm can’t use spiritual qi in it.”
“These three points are all the rules of this trial. Please remember them.”
“Now, please enter the teleportation array and wait for the trial to begin.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man’s body transformed into dozens of talismans that instantly shot into the center of the participants’ brows and fused with their souls.
This talisman was the immortal-rank transfer talisman that the old man had just mentioned.
Apart from protecting the contestant, this talisman also had the effect of locating the contestant to watch the battle in real time.
Not long after, all the contestants entered the teleportation array.
They waited for half an hour for the trial to begin.
While waiting, many people in the teleportation array communicated with each other.
“That old man just now was transformed from a talisman paper? But how did my divine sense sense sense that he was a living being? How did he do it?” “Don’t be so surprised. Isn’t it just a small trick of the Talisman Hall? Is there a need to be so surprised?”
“What’s going on? That talisman clearly shot into the space between my eyebrows just now. Why can’t I sense the existence of the talisman?”
“The talisman is hidden in your sea of consciousness. It’s just that your cultivation is too low to sense it.”
“Why are you hiding it in your sea of consciousness? Can’t you just give it to us?”
“For you to hold? Can you hold it? Don’t be robbed as soon as you go in.”
“You can still snatch it?”
“As long as you don’t kill anyone, you can snatch them.”

Hearing the conversation between these people, Chen An immediately realized something.
Once the trial began, some contestants who felt that they had no hope of obtaining good results would definitely transform into bandit cultivators and rob those weaker than them.
It seemed that this so-called Newcomer Trial was destined to not be too harmonious.
